Political Notes.

The Republicans have been very kind. to
John Fleetham in the First ward and are do
ing all they can to help him along. OF course
it viii be useless. and the First will be Demo-
cratic, as usual, but some OF the other candi-
dates are wondering why they don't get a
little help. When it came to nominating an
East side justice, a man from the Northeast
was chosen because lit would help Fleet
ham," Yesterday Robert Graham a North
east Democrat, was nominated TO the park
commission, because it would help Fleet
han.'' There are other Republican c&ndi-
dates who need help just as much as Fleet
ham.

A Years Unique Statistics of the
Work House.

Supt. John Il. West, of the work house,
presented the council last night with his
first annual report of the work house, and
the document contains some rather inter-
esting statistics. The farm cost the city
less than SIS, 900 and the buildings SOL. 500.
while the entire property is now estimated
worth S1O2. 500. The total cost of running
the institution last year was S16,0 900, which
includes a number of permanent improve
ments. The total number of prisoners was
63S, all of whom were sent by the munic-
ipal court; % were females; foreign born,
800; native, born, 31S; 10 were under 20
wears of age and SO over so years; were
cripples and 169 in bad health. 1t cost II
cents per day per prisoner for maintenance.
Nearly every known occupation was repre-
scented, the only apparent exceptions being
ministers, lawyers and editors. Doctors
and civil engineers, architects, clerks and
sailors were there, and only one man put
himself down as without occupation--a
natural born tramp. AS to nativity, New
York leads with 81, Sweden 49, Canada As,
Ireland 90, Germany IS, Norway 81, down
to / each for Holland and Switzerland.
In offenses 464 went for plain DRINKS and
20 were sent for disorderly conduct and 81
for vagrancy. Those who could read and write
were 563 in number. 81 could read only and
4S could do neither. There were 351 Cath.
olics, PSI Protestants and Sc infidels OF
irrelgious prisoners; 90 claimed to be tenn
perate, 1877 thought they drank in moder-
alton and AL admitted they were addicted
to drink; 62S were white, colored and z
half breeds.

A reporter, while standing on the corner
yesterday, heard the following conversation
between Mr.. L.. Il stringent prohibitiOnist.
and Joseph Murch, Il prominent saloonkeeper
OF this city, on Hennepin avenue, in refer

''Nejghbor Murch, how do you like the new
law?" Not at ALL said Joe; ''while can

my business because there will be less COM

ter OF principle, because while the business
is permitted by law. the man who has 500
has the same right to engage in the profitable
occupation as the man who has $1,000; hence
this law discriminates against the poor.

in HIS Lent SsOe.
BENJAMIN Brunswick. the agent for
Brunswick IL Co.. manufacturers of billiard
tables, shot himself yesterday accidentally
it is presumed. at the office of the company,
95l Nicollet avenue. From such particulars
as could be learned it appears that
one of the employees who was in
the wareroom heard Il pistol shot
in the office, which is located
in one corner of the room. He rushed
back and reached the Office just as Bruins
wick opened the door and staggered out,
holding his hand to his left side, saying:
Il have shot myself; go for DOCTOR" Dir.
Kilvington was summoned and an exami-
nation showed that the ball had entered
the left side, and, striking the
ninth rib, glanced outward. After
traversing course of six inches
the ball took an outward direction and
lodged near the skin, so that it was easily
extracted The wound is painful one,
the rib being fractured. but it is not dan
gerous The shooting has every appear
ance of being accidental. although some of
Young Brunswick's friends think it may
have been intentional, as he has been some
what Respondent of late. When asked why
he did it, he said II don't know.

the revolver in my hand. | picked
it up from the table and it went off. That's
all know" The revolver was only 80
caliber. and the size of the bullet doubtless
saved Brunswick's life, as bullet from a
larger revolver would not have glanced
outward. Brunswick was resting easily at
midnight. and will recover within short
time. He is well known and very popu-

Main Points.
There,is considerable doubt still surround
ing the election laws, and the aplest lawyers
pronounce themselves at fault in conStrulhg
and applying it. City Attorney Cross mas
corrected himself in his opinion in regard to
registration. but in oder that perfect UNI
derstanding may be had, the entire cores
poudence is given. City Clerk Matthews
wrote the attorney as follows:
Please furnish MS with your opinion as 10
what you consider TO be the duty or the
Judges of election relative to complying so
far rs they can on election day with the re-
ouirements of the new election law passed at
the last session of the legislature; particu-
larly that portion which prohibits electors not
registered from voting. So far as the regis
tration of electors is concerned, that was COM
menced and will be completed as required
under the old law. as we did not have time to
comply with all the requirements of the new
law relative to such registration. think
such an opinion as l ask for is due TO the
Judges, so as TO enable them 10 act under-
Standingly on election day.
City Attorney Cross responded as fol
lows:
Your INQUIRY as TO whether or not electors
who are not registered can vote at the coming
city election received. In my opinion elect
ors vino have not been registered cannot vote
next Tuesday ut the city election. The pro-
vision on this point is contained in section ~
of She last election law (Whiteman law and
seems TO be definite l would advise all Of
f1cers to fully comply with the new law so far
as it can be done.
1t is probable that a committee OF four
from each of the Democratic and Repuol-
can committees will have conference ana
